/ Great statistician,s Conclusion.

The conclusions of Edward Atkin-
son, the great statistician, in u lecture
before the Nineteenth Century Club,
are widely different from those arriv-
ed at by Henry George. He says,
among other things: Experience
shows that the great remedy for so
cialism is the development Of tue in
dividual and the education of the
young. Labor is fast learning that
diminished profits and prices go hand
in hand with higher wages and lower
cost The earning power of capital
has decreased since 1860 from to
4 per cent, while labor's condition
has improved. The very poor are
not more numerous than formerly.
In the organization oflabor is found
an attempt to equalize the dispari-
ties of modern conditions. High
wages are the correlatiye of low cost.
Pauper labor is to be feared only by
those ofpauper intelligence. | have
investigated fifty arts. They all
show progressive developing from
poverty; high wages with diminish
ed profits, and on all sides an APP
proach to more equal conditions of
;he employer and laborer.''
The capitalist is not regarded as
the common enemy Of mankind.
Mr.. Atkinson says: "If a capitalist
saves what would otherwise be vast
ed, OF what harm is he? OF old he
kept everything to himself; now he
has to allow others to share the bene
fit of his work. More than so per
cent of the people enjoy substantial
equality now. The rich have more
clothing, but the poor wear out more.
In fuel they are equal consumers.
The greatest disparity between the
two is in shelter and in the control
of their time. Subsistence is now so
abundant that there is complaint Of
overproduction. There is more cap
ital than could be used"
About railroads he expresses be-
lief quite different from what very
many hold. He says "a great cry
goes up eternalIy about the railroads
For my part ! would rather have
the Vanderbits carry my trunk
than to carry it myself. They can
do it cheaper All modern agita-
tion leads me to conclude that social
and political conditions are to be
improved by evolution, not by revo-
luton. There is not an art in which
the profit is not less than the waste
of twenty-five years ago. The mar
gin Of the profit has become very
small. Ifmen become rich by saw
ing the waste and applying it to the
benefit of labor, who suffers 2"
Mr.. Atkinson is authority on all
these questions, and the thoughts he
expresses above are worth bordering
over.
